4.00Awesome experience on the jet boat, just the booking price didn’t say US dollars until you get the final bill. As you expect it to be advertised in AU dollars.You need to fix that up!! It’s a bit deceive.

Great for teenagers

5.00Family with two teenage sons - this was an ideal activity. The check-in was easy (note the unit is on the outside of the shopping centre) and we were given waterproofs as the day was a little grey. As it turned out, this was a perfect activity for a greyer day - Jack was a great captain and we all loved it (I had started out nervous but it was great fun!). The even provided sunglasses for the spray and water to clear saltwater from your eyes after. Highly recommend.
